Seminole Inmate Charged In Escape Attempt

SANFORD — An inmate at the Seminole County jail was charged Wednesday with attempted escape after another prisoner told guards that three prisoners were going to try to break out.

David Thomas Miller, 21, Sanford, was charged with trying to escape from his cellblock.

Miller has been in the jail since March, charged with failure to appear in court on a charge of not having a driver's license, violation of probation and three counts of worthless checks.

A prisoner told guards last weekend that three men were planning an escape, the arrest affidavit showed. During a check of the cellblock Tuesday, officers found that a metal table had been used to chip away the concrete around a window.
